I'm assuming you are talking SWT.

No, but it is not the VE's fault. Toolbars in SWT can only take ToolItems.

I believe CoolBar can do this though.

Hi,

That is actually not an allowed usage of ToolBar according to the
JavaDoc. They shouldn't of shown that. From the JavaDoc for ToolBar:

* Instances of this class support the layout of selectable
* tool bar items.
* 
* The item children that may be added to instances of this class
* must be of type <code>ToolItem</code>.
* 
* Note that although this class is a subclass of <code>Composite</code>,
* it does not make sense to add <code>Control</code> children to it,
* or set a layout on it.
*
